Special Projects in Materials Science and Engineering

1.0-3.0 credits · Undergraduate

Students engage in a mentored investigation or inquiry that aims to make a scholarly contribution to the field of Materials Science and Engineering. Students are mentored by Cornell faculty in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, and may have additional mentors. Each credit hour requires, on average, 3 hours per week throughout the semester. To enroll, students should schedule a meeting with their mentor(s) to discuss the semester goals, requirements, and expectations associated with the research credit(s). Students must submit a Cornell Engineering Research for Credit Form (https://experience.cornell.edu/opportunities/cornell-engineering-research-credit). Upon approval, students are responsible for enrolling themselves with a permission number.
